/robowaifu/ - DIY Robot Wives

Advancing robotics to a point where anime catgrill meidos in tiny miniskirts are a reality.

Downtime was caused by the hosting service's network going down. Should be OK now.

An issue with the Webring addon was causing Lynxchan to intermittently crash. The issue has been fixed.

>>26412 OK, my apologies NoidoDev (and everyone else who may have run into this but didn't report it). I'll take a look at this and try to improve things with the improvements already intended. Most likely, this will be near or on the Christmas school break timeframe. For now, I'll try to drop another patched version that hopefully will get you going sometime this week. That command was a bit of a hack that was needed as the GCC hadn't completed their C++17 filesystem library at the time I wrote that. Today that works fine w/o all the hoops, so it will probably fix your problem. Stay tuned Anon.
>>26413 Lol, sorry for such wonky writing r/n. Hopefully it's understandable enough. :P
>>26412 BTW, can you give me a hint what OS you're on Anon? I'll find the proper TBB install package for you to be able to use threads.
>>26413 Thanks for your efforts. It's not super urgent, I just felt the pressure to install it on my PC when I wanted to look for a video today, which I had no idea where it was posted and discussed. >>26415 I'm on an Arch based Linux distro.
I'm hovering around the 10TB mark with my scraping, and I'd like to give you all your daily reminder to scrub or destroy any drives containing sensitive data before getting rid of them, and always use full disk encryption where possible. Unless you happen to throw away your tech at the same place I pick it up, I won't erase that data for you. I realize that you guys should know better, but some of the organizations that used to own these should really know better.

>>26419 if you don't mind me asking, what kind of stuff did you find on there? Personal stuff? >>26423 Could you get around that by physically destroying the drives?
>>26418 OK, ty for the heads-up nevertheless. Cheers. >>26419 >I'm hovering around the 10TB mark with my scraping Awesome! Good going Greentext anon. Thanks for the good advice about privacy/security. Much appreciated. Cheers.
>>26424 if you destroy the actual flash chips yeah, if you just break the board they could just remove the flash chips and read them individually, in theory at least, no one is going to be that autistic unless its a criminal investigation or something
>>26419 Thanks for the reminder. I assume you're advocating for full disk encryption because these modern drives store the data in a way that makes simple deletion insufficient? I recall datasafes having issues with SSDs and such, I'm still using HDDs for a lot, but got a bit sloppy with encryption after loosing some data. I started using GoCyryptfs containers, though.
>>26424 Sometimes I'll skim the directory structure out of morbid curiosity, but I never look at the files themselves (in addition to feeling a bit too creepy, I don't want to risk seeing something I can't unsee). Knowing where the drives come from is enough to tell me what's on there, anyways. In addition to typical consumer stuff, some of the drives comes from organizaions that handle other people's sensitive data. Financial data, medical data, security footage (hence why I have WD purples), the like. As I said, people who should know better. >>26430 Actually, I've never even used a data recovery program before, so I couldn't say. Most of the drives I get haven't been cleaned at all, even through simple deletion. The way I see it, the problem isn't so much with modern technology and forensics, but that the most basic steps aren't even being taken to protect data in the first place. Frankly, I think every modern OS should come with encryption enabled by default. Sure, it's slightly less convenient and people will complain about that, but so few people truly understand the price of convenience until they've been made to pay it. That, and people need to start learning that Linux isn't the complicated mess they think it is and start adopting it. If anything, Windows has been more complicated for a while, even for basic tasks. I was trying to change the screen resolution for one of my family members because it was too low, and I kept having to use the search function because I literally could not figure out how to navigate the labyrinthian mess that is the Windows 11 control panel. It took me ten minutes to do in Windows what I could do on Mint in ten seconds.

I've said before in other threads that I don't want my waifu to have internet access for security reasons, and I'd rather transfer files into her manually. I was thinking if it could ingest document data like PrivateGPT, that would be good enough for most of my needs. I'm fine with her needing to learn most physical things from trial and error alone, because I fully intend on building her myself instead of expecting something working right out of a box. Plain text, pictures, audio & videos are all easy enough to manually review, for the most part. But body movement/coordination with non-standardized hardware design, or more complex and abstract data may be more difficult to share safely. This got me wondering what exactly most men would want their waifu to know/do (besides fucking) and just how much of it could easily come pre-packaged.

>>26434 Some medical knowledge would be very desireable for men who need it. For instance, if you have a severe allergy, having a waifu who knows how to administer an epi-pen would be life saving. Concerning more mundane day to day tasks, I think the best method would be to give basline technical knowledge, and have her learn practical specifics on-site. Let's use doing the laundry as an example. Certain things, such as the various symbols used on clothing tags (and how to tell what an article of clothing probably needs if there isn't a tag, by looking at the material properties and what the item is used for), could be built-in fairly easily I imagine. But what about using the actual washer and dryer (assuming the user even has both)? No two washers or dryers are built equally. They may have different load capacities, different settings, and different control schemes. Being able to read the manual can be helpful, however far too many companies have forgotten how to make decent manuals. Also, these machines may perform differently depending on how old they are, or if any parts need to be or already were replaced.
>>26433 While people really don't like adapting to a new UI, no matter how much better it might be than what they're used to. And even though Windows has pretty bad UD, Linux is even worse because of how much it can force you to use the command line. And while learning a new GUI might be a chore, it's nowhere near as much of a burden as learning a new command line. And the only way I could see people actually going back to typing as the primary way to use a computer is if command lines incorporate LLMs so you don't need to remember very much. This is a great video on GUI and he goes into hotkeys about 35 minutes in and about 1 hour in mentions Linux: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AItTqnTsVjA And one of the most important things to remember is that the GUI is NOT the OS. You can change UI on just about any OS, so what really separates them is what's going on under the hood, and if you can get past the UI of Linux, the real problem is the lack of support for Windows software, (especially videogames) which is a big part of the reason why people don't want to switch over.
>>26434 The real issue is gonna be that you might want your waifu to be inform you about what's going on in the world, give you a summary, have some chitchat, or only tell you what you need to know. This will require access to a news feed. We will certainly find ways to share data for procedures securely. This can be in a human readable file format and can be checked by parsers and any huge LLM for dangerous elements.
>>26436 Ehh, command line is a command line. The UNIX paradigm clearly won, just standardize on that and everyone wins, Anon. >which is a big part of the reason why people don't want to switch over. That's actually the only real issue at hand. Linux is pretty clearly way ahead of Wangblows in most respects that are important to us here.

This will require access to a news feed. This. < "Sumomo-chan, find some good bathing software!" :^) We're working towards a 'cyber airlock' type system for vetted data access/security to the outside world. A. The robowaifu will never have direct access to the outside networks (permanently air-gapped). B. Her docking/charging/storage station (Dollhouse) will provide a deadrop-style mechanism (again, also air-gapped) for requesting pulls of data from the outside networks. C. The Curator subsystems makes a deadrop pull-request asynchronously to the station; it thereafter asynchronously picks up the return deadrop data following the successful delivery+vetting+filtering by the station's Mailbox systems; * these request/retrievals are performed through a physical-lockout apparatus -- kind of like an A-B-C rotary electrical connector -- where only one circuit pathway (data circuit pathways, in this case) at a time is physically feasible; * Curator then provides that retrieved data to the robowaifu's cognitive ghost in a way that is strictly sandboxed & read-only against her inboard systems. Effectively, this entire process is intentionally managed outboard the robowaifu; who, again, never directly connects to the network. --- >deadrop For clarity, I mean this idea: * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USB_dead_drop and tangential to this idea: * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dead_drop >cf. : * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sneakernet * (>>14409) >=== -prose edit -add 'Dead_drop', etc. hotlinks -add 'bathing software' funpost example

As would most people. >That's actually the only real issue at hand. The only reason I'm using Windows 10 right now instead of Linux is because I installed Linux on my desktop shortly before I had a problem with my ISP and ended up with no internet for nearly a month. My laptop still had Win 10 & I took it with me to the library when I needed to do shit online. I figured I'd make my desktop experience more tolerable by downloading the installers for any Linux-versions of the Win 10 software I use & whatever Linux alternatives I could find for the rest, (which turned out to be a majority of them) then put them on a flash drive. I couldn't find any installers for anything, or couldn't figure out how to use them on Linux, my options seemed to be either connect to the internet directly or go fuck myself. I haven't touched Linux again since.
>>26451 There seems little point in discussing it with you Anon, your mind's made up it seems. You certainly make things next to impossible for the DIY ethos we're all about here by taking such an adamant position against the primary open-source OS in the world r/n. HOWEVER... the plan is eventually to release kits & fully-constructed robowaifus for the general male audience. That is, not much by way of 'do-it-yourself' will be required. So you won't have to teach yourself tech stuff to assemble/buy your own -- if you wait you'll still be able to obtain one in the end. Cheers. :^) >=== -prose edit

>>26452 Take it from me, people will never listen to anyone peddling Linux unless they feel like they have no other choice. Funnily enough, that's even how I switched. When got my first Windows 8 computer, I was so uncomfortable with the Microsoft account stuff they were pushing that I jumped ship the very same day. I didn't even know how bad it really was, I didn't even know computers a fraction as well as I do now. I just had a feeling, and that was enough for me. I saw Mint and figured it wouldn't be too difficult to figure out, since it was a GUI and looked similar. Funnily enough, I was right for the most part. The learning curve was pretty shallow, and the user experience was great even then, Even now, I'll shill Mint because of how much I fell in love with it. I even once made an entire graphic presentation spelling out how unbelievably easy to use Mint is, including pointing out that the terminal doesn't need to be used for anything, and outlining how to install a few popular programs (again, all through GUI). I'm pretty sure it convinced nobody. They'll just stick to their trench until a shell drops that forces them to realize just how fucked the Windows experience really is, and how much better it'd be if they just stepped over to the greener grass.
>>26453 >Even now, I'll shill Mint because of how much I fell in love with it. It was my first Linux and I too will wholeheartedly recommend it for the beginners. They have great IRC support as well. I use Manjaro for the most part for my own stuff outside of school (they use macOS, which while I loath A*ple, I have to admit is a pretty good normie platform all things considered). Once Gunship convinced me to try OpenBSD, I'm pretty convinced about it. Not sure how everything will end up with our robowaifu OS needs, but certainly there is much great code to draw from in OpenBSD. >They'll just stick to their trench until a shell drops that forces them As our friend mentions, the terminal is a stumbling block for many. Ehh, I guess that's OK too. I've never taken to Vim even today other than it's ever-present convenience. When I'm doing real development work I still go with juCI++. My hope is that we'll manage to create a real RWOS using a hypervisor + #include<OS> . I don't think we're likely to find a solution that's more stable or closer to the metal. (>>203, ...)
>>26439 >Waifu connected to the Internet I'm too schizo that mate. >>26446 >We're making air gapped robots I'm designing a system that can connect as NoidoDev wants. You are right but, there's huge demand for Internet related functionality. We won't use this functionality, doesn't mean it isn't useful for the average Anon. It's easy to set up an RSS feed with a TTS to give her an Alexa comparable application. >Server to scrape only necessary data Do you mean giving her a DMZ? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/DMZ_(computing) >>26453 >No other choice Correct, Linux is objectively correct. Being comfortable changes nothing. (Ubuntu Studio with some customization for Windows compatibility.)
>>26455 >there's huge demand for Internet related functionality. Yeah, so please don't misunderstand me. The whole point of this type design effort is just that: to allow Sumomo-chan your robowaifu to freely find great bathing software search, across the Intertubes by whatever external means desired. The results are simply distilled down into an innocuous format safe for her to peruse; via software/hardware means difficult to haxxor from without. Safety first! :^) >Do you mean giving her a DMZ? It does act much like a DMZ concept at the outermost tip of the chain, but I'm talking about something much more robust & glownigger-like (think Ethan Hunt breaking into the CIA) -- that can still be implemented pretty cheaply (~US$35), given the free implementation software, 3D-printing, and ready access to simple electronics/parts supplies. >tl;dr Think 'Neo meets Terry Davis'. :D >=== -prose edit -add funpost

>>26452 >You certainly make things next to impossible for the DIY ethos we're all about here by taking such an adamant position against the primary open-source OS in the world r/n. I think my biggest problem is really that I expected a lot more customizability than what I was able to get. And from what I'd read Ubuntu seemed to be the best choice, or at least easiest choice for someone switching over from Windows. I was probably wrong on that front. And the fact that I felt like it was forcing me to connect to the internet really made me want a better alternative. I know it's basically just a meme, but Terry A. Davis said that Linux wants to be a 1970's mainframe, and that the people developing for it are pretty much stuck in that mindset, and it really feels that way with how even with Ubuntu (which I thought was supposed to be a noob-friendly Linux) I'm still being strong-armed into using command line to get shit done. I never really thought too much about GUI until a few years ago when I saw that video, aside from occasionally wishing to do shit faster. I'm more of a hardware guy, but AI is getting better at coding all the time. I was hoping that 10 to 15 years from now I'd have a PC with some TempleOS fork on it, and use AI to help rewrite it, giving it a good GUI, better hardware support, & better file type support, while retaining the fast lightweight code without any of those limitations Terry put on it. Maybe I'd eventually have AI on it & eventually the OS would improve & optimize itself. >>26453 I'll give Mint a try later.

I'll stop myself before I come up with a massive ten post long list, and instead say: Basically everything I can. I'd want to include her in pretty much every aspect of my life, and explore new things with her.
>>26524 >I'll stop myself before I come up with a massive ten post long list, NEEDS MOAR MASSIVE TEXTS :^) Sure looking forward to your next posts about your project in our prototypes thread Greentext anon. You were at concepts w/ some design work. How's that all coming along? Cheers. :^)
>>26526 Yeah, some things came up IRL (most affecting being a drastic change to my sleep/work schedule) and I couldn't put as much attention into making Orchid. It's given me time to think when I wasn't struggling to stay awake though. I think I've been trying to focus on too many aspects of the design at once, so I'm going to try and break up the tasks as I go forward. My current line of thinking is that I'll keep with the "frame first" philosophy, but work from the hooves up (literally) instead of trying to figure out the whole frame at once. To accomplish this, my intention is to do what I was about to do before and come up with final(-ish) measurements for Orchid's total size. From this, I'll come up with the size that her hooves should be, then finalize the design and make them. Once the hooves are built and ready, I'll move to the legs, then the shoulders, then the torso, then the head. Once the inner frame is complete, I'll work on the remote motor controls that I mentioned before ( >>25533 ) and wire everything up. Then, finally, I'll stitch up the outer frame. Much like an orchid, Orchid shall start as a seed planted on the ground, then grow up and blossom out. Expect my next post to mostly be about the hooves, along with some gassing on about porportions and measurements.
>>26517 >You're conflating fiction with reality. The weight of gynoids in some story doesn't matter, the real weight much more so. Due to fiction people don't really bat an eye at a humanoid robot weighing several hundred pounds more than a human of the same size. And the only reason I could see that not being the case with a real robot girl is because that would require more power than a lighter robot. Otherwise, I don't really see a reason why there'd need to be a minimum or a maximum weight. >I assume no one here even watched this. I recently watched through all of the Terminator movies. It peaked at the first one.
>>26534 > I don't really see a reason why there'd need to be a minimum or a maximum weight. I assume this is about how it would feel carrying her and how much guys would trust themselves to handle her. Either way, I'm sure the question is only relevant in regards to a real gynoid and not fiction. >I recently watched through all of the Terminator movies. It peaked at the first one. I thought the second one was really good and is considered by many as the peak, I like both of them but it has been a while. Some of the later ones also have also good moments and are watchable, but have more and more bad parts. I think I'm gonna watch Terminator Salvation again in some time, though I doubt I have the time. Generally I like the tv show the most, because Cameron is kinda fascinating.
>>26527 Excellent information Anon. >from the hooves up I too have come to the revelation that achieving bipedal-locomotion capabilites for our robowaifus of all sizes may simply entail us starting the design/manufacturing/programming literally from the ground up: beginning simply with one foot. Looking forward to when you pick back up again, please move quickly as you are able to! Cheers. :^) >>26540 >because Cameron is kinda fascinating. She really is tbh.
>>26527 saw this just now, might interest you, the legs are pretty simple four legs seems a lot less complicated than making something that has to stand up right

>>26540 >I assume this is about how it would feel carrying her and how much guys would trust themselves to handle her. The first robowaifu I think that her weight would be a byproduct of other things that are far more important, hence my comment about a heavier robot requiring more power than a lighter robot. I can lift 60 pounds over my head without much effort, but wouldn't want the same amount of weight resting entirely on my face. A 600 pound robowaifu could walk around my apartment just fine, and the furniture might survive, but hopping on one foot could lead to an unintended visit to my downstairs neighbors. A hard limit on minimum or maximum weight for a minimum viable waifu seems unnecessary. >I thought the second one was really good and is considered by many as the peak, I like both of them but it has been a while. I head the same thing with Aliens but always considered Alien to be better. The real difference is that the sequels are action movies while the originals are horror movies that have action scenes. The camera work, effects, and overall budget are superior in the second of each, but the writing isn't as good, at least with Terminator. You can tell Reese and Sarah are gradually figuring out that they're in a predestination paradox and it's almost scarier than the Terminator himself. T1 is also something of a love story that many of the sequels ape, but fall flat on. I was thinking of doing a whole big essay thing on the series, but decided against it. Although, I watched the BluRay versions of each and there were scenes in Terminator that shouldn't have been cut (Sarah saying they should blow-up Cyberdyne, or revealing that the ending happened at a Cyberdyne factory) while T2 had scenes that should have been cut from the version I saw because they didn't really work & it just ran for too long. >Some of the later ones also have also good moments and are watchable, but have more and more bad parts. Each one has good moments, but they're all wasted potential and I don't think I'll ever watch them again unless I actually want to make that essay. >I think I'm gonna watch Terminator Salvation again in some time The only thing it really has going for it is that it takes place entirely in the post Judgement Day future without any convoluted time travel bs. But they still tried to force that in by having the Terminator of the movie be a human that traveled from the past. >Generally I like the tv show the most, because Cameron is kinda fascinating. I never saw it, and probably won't bother. I'm pretty Terminatored out.
Happy Thanksgiving, /robowaifu/ ! Hey you don't have to be a burger to have thanksgiving in your heart! :^)
